If you're middle-aged and your memory's not what it used to be, check thebathroom scale, researchers warned, suggesting overweight people tend to scoremore poorly on tests of memory than their thinner peers do.
The findings suggest that a heavier weight in middle age may mean a higherrisk of dementia later in life.
Reporting in the journal Neurology, the researchers speculated that higherrates of cardiovascular disease or diabetes might help explain the link. Butit's also possible that substances produced by fat cells, such as the hormoneleptin, have direct effects on the brain.
The study compared mental abilities to body mass index (BMI), a
measurement of weight in relation to height used to define overweight andobesity. A BMI of 25 or more indicates overweight, and 30 or more is obese.
The study also investigated the relationships between BMI and cognitivefunction in 2,223 healthy men and women between the ages of 32 and 62 in Francethrough the use of four cognitive tests.
The study found a higher BMI was associated with lower cognitive test scores.Results from a test involving word memory recall show people with a BMI of 20remembered an average of nine out of 16 words, while people with a BMI of 30remembered an average of seven out of 16 words.
One of the most popular sentences online states that “remember...always act like you ‘re wearing an invisible crown.”What the saying indicates is the importance of confidence，an attitude that we should take toward our life.
It’s generally accepted that confidence plays a very vital role in one’s life. But do you really know what dose self-confidence mean? Well，it means that you have strong belief that you can do things and you will succeed in the end. If you want to do something well，you must have faith in yourself. Just like the old saying goes，confidence in yourself is the first step on the road to success. Otherwise，you may hardly to do anything right. Some people love to complain how incapable they are or how difficult their tasks are，they never think about the problem in themselves，which is lack of confidence. If they fail，they will refuse to have another try. Then they will never ever have the chance to overcome difficulties.
May be destined to a person's character，it is not easy to change. But if everyone into confident on their own elements，their life will become more colorful，more open. You may ask why you are confident? I think: confidence + opportunity = success. So self-confidence is indispensable auxiliary conditions. Everyone thinks oneself from birth，fate dominate everything，all want to follow the path of destiny. If you have such idea，may be you are wrong. Destiny is master in your hand，opportunity is in your side. The you find place，it did not work. Don't let the chance to run out in front of you，the first to catch the opportunities，of course. However，get the opportunities，of course，is a good thing. But people have the opportunity to don't you will achieve success. Some people often suffer from failure tripping，overwhelm be heavy setbacks，let these people thought he was a mediocre person，chance on them. Success will become very slim. So have the opportunity is important，the most important thing is that you have confidence. Even if you get upset about my setbacks，as long as you have a good mood，have full confidence in myself. Believe that failure and frustration on you again，can also be solved. So self-confidence is very important for a person，even if you don't have too much talent，have the confidence you have into a big step away from success than others. Albert Einstein said，confidence is to take the first step to success. So people should have confidence，also need confidence in life.
In a word，as a saying says，” Make the most of yourself，for that is all there is of you. "Confidence for us is an indispensable part of our life.

Good morning:
Honorable judges, dear teachers and close friends. I’m very glad to stand here to share my speech with you. Today I’m going to talk about Love and Take care of Nature.Each life on the earth has a long and touching evolutionary story. From the origin, the lives of the human being are equal to those of others; they both are the composing parts of Mother Nature. Nevertheless, for some inexplicable reasons, the human becomes the spirits of all creatures. Of course, it is the result of the evolution, but still we should be grateful to all our companions in nature for the opportunity they offer. In spite of this, humans cannot live without earth.
They live on the earth, drink the sweet water, and enjoy the sunshine, the air, the sky, the fruit; the grains utilize the energy and so on. In a word, the human being cannot live without nature, and Mother Nature makes us grow stronger. I do not like the word "Pet", but preferring the word "Animal" instead. I have been loving animal since I was just a little boy. When thinking of the "Pet Fashion", I always feel much annoyed. For the animals will be given a shackle and lose their liberty if they become someone's pets. Their natural attribution can be deprived, too. Up to now, relying on their scientific power, the human have opened up too much and over developed nature, in order to fill up their growing appetites of wealth.
They destroy the balance of nature, however, they don't realize, their own development and existence will be threatened. Therefore, our sights should be focused on nature and we should try to develop the concept of "keeping human and nature in unity". We should lay emphasis on our education with consider cultural and natural emotion. To use the vivid example to wake up the conscience in people's hearts.
Thank you!
我的演讲稿：
Ladies and Gentlemen , Good afternoon! I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. I hope you inance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . her 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courag
One of the legacies of receiving a world-class education is the sobering awareness of the inadequacy of our knowledge. Some years ago, one of the people I admire and respect most architect is Renzo Piano just turned 70 and I asked him what felt like. He said that, as much as he had thought about and prepared for that moment, it still came as a shock. Now I can attest to that feeling of shock but more than anything he said it made him feel that our proper lifespan should be 210 years, 70 to learn, 70 to do, and 70 to teach the next generation.
This lovely description captures an elementary fact of life: a good life has the feeling that we’re learning more and more as we go. And that we could do even better if we just learned a bit more. I hope that you are fortunate enough to carry that spirit of life with you and we must hope together that it continues to define this nation and the world. In the centuries ahead, on behalf of Columbia University, I extend to all our graduates the centennial class of 20xx warmest k you!
I like Yao Ming very much who is the idol I like most.
I like playing basketball and in my opinion, he is the best basketball player in China.
When he started to play basketball in NBA, I was so excited that I saw the news about him everyday.
When he performed well, I was really happy for him. When he did not, I hoped he could rearrange himself and do well in the next game.
What’s more, his personalities attract me as well.
He is kind-hearted and humorous. He always smiles and is kind to very body, even his opponents.
Although he does not play basketball anymore, I still like him.
I hope he can do well in other fields as well.
i'm talking about your coworkers and your spouses and your children and the person sitting next to you right now -- all of them subject to this bias that is pretty deep and real in our society. we all internalize it from a very early age without even having a language for what we're doing.
now to see the bias clearly you need to understand what introversion is. it's different from being shy. shyness is about fear of social judgment. introversion is more about, how do you respond to stimulation, including social stimulation. so extroverts really crave large amounts of stimulation, whereas introverts feel at their most alive and their most switched-on and their most capable when they're in quieter, more low-key environments. not all the time -- these things aren't absolute -- but a lot of the time. so the key then to maximizing our talents is for us all to put ourselves in the zone of stimulation that is right for us.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Honorable Judges, Good afternoon.
I come from one of the most lovely and attractive areas of China, the PearlRiver Delta of Guangdong Province and I'd love to say a few words about thisarea that is so dear to my heart.
Guangdong Province is a magically beautiful wonderland, with endlessnatural treasures. The lush and green mountains are inhabited by songbirds andexotic animals; the farm land is fertile and productive, providing all of itspeople with wonderfully nutritious grains and all the fruits they need to behealthy and strong. The Pearl River meanders through the province and eventuallycomes to our beautiful seashore with crystal clear blue water, flourishing withall kinds of different fish and sea creatures. All these natural advantages helpto boost the ever-expanding economy of Guangdong and increase the welfare of itspeople.
Guangdong is privileged to have such a beautiful landscape, with hundredsof historical sites and places of great interest to local people and foreignersalike. Our capital city, Guangzhou, is also known as "the city of flowers".Everywhere you look you will see flourishing plants and blossoming flowersoverflowing with vigor.
The people of Guagdong are very friendly to visitors from anywhere. Whoeveryou are and wherever you come from, Guangdong people will greet you with theonly language---Guangdong dialect.
Guangdong is also known as the Chinese capital of delicious food. There isan old saying that "The only best delicacies are in Guangdong.” Food from thisprovince is internationally famous. Its variety of tastes, shapes and colors cansatisfy even the most refined palette. I'm sure, the moment you seat yourself ata Cantonese banquet, your appetite will naturally become keen and eager to tasteall the numerous delicacies of the region. Here are but a few I will mention inpassing: steamed fish in ginger sauce, seasoned chicken, drunken shrimp, dancefish balls, fried jellyfish, roast suckling pig or duck, braised crispy chickenor squab, shark fin soup, moon cakes, refreshments and desert, and so many more.My mouth is watering just at the sound of these wonderful dishes.
I would like you all to know that there is truly nowhere in the world Iwould rather live and I invite you all to come discover the hidden treasures ofmy hometown. I would be glad to serve as your personal guide.
Thank you all.

Good afternoon,teachers! First please allow me to introduce myselfbriefly.
My name is Xie Tianyuan. I am 17 years old. My birthday is Jan. 1st . It’sjust New Year’s Day. I e from Class 13,Grade 2 of Junan No. 1 Senior HighSchool.
I am a cheerful teenager,so my hobbies is extensive. In my spare time Ilike playing table tennis and soccer.After school,I like to surf the Internetor listen to music. I also will put into the reading to enrich my knowledge,inorder to understand the world. I like reading and I often borrow books from theschool library. I enjoy reading books because the books can make me happy andsunny every day.
Then I will say sth. about my family. There are three people in myfamily,my mother,father and me. My father is a strict but kind man. He alwaysputs his own heart on his business. My mother is a teacher. She does prettywell. No matter what they do,or how busy they are,they always give me theirdeep love. I love them,too.
As long as you work hard,there will be a harvest. This is my motto. I’llfollow this path and study hard.
That’s all. Thank you.
Leo Tolstoy once said, everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
He is right. We always have great plans and dreams in our minds… too ready to achieve something grand that changes the world or benefits all of mankind .For example; we hate pollution and have made up our minds to find new energy sources that keep the environment clean. Yet we still litter on the ground. We complain about traffic jams, so we plan to build more highways to solve the problem, but it never occurs to us that our failure to follow traffic regulations is the leading cause of this situation. We are so concerned that the violence in the media has a bad impact on our children, we urge the government to set laws to protect them. But, do we, as adults, set a good example for our kids? We use nasty words and even spit on the ground in front of them, I dare to say, we harm more!
In my opinion, before we decide to change the world, we had better change ourselves first. As ordinary individuals, we do not have the power to change the world. But we can change our habit of littering, spitting, cussing, we can respect the environment around us, we must act as good models for our kids.
If each of us does all of these little things, all of us, millions and millions of individuals together, together we will be strong …strong enough to change our world!
So please, the next time you do something, think how your actions influence
Recently,six killing accident happen in elementary school,which have a bad influences on our social safety.These influences can be described as follow.
Initially,the elementary school killing accident cause the students'panic,worrying about their own safety.What’s more,it also cause the parents’and teathers’ worry,and parents and teachers must pay more attention to their children’s and student’s safety.Last but not least,due to this,many other people hold panic for their own safety.
From what we have discussed ,we know the serious consequence of killing accident in elementary school.So facing this accident,relative department should take effective measures to reduce the killing accident in elementary school,reducing the social panic,assurencing the social safety.
A we know, mot of the thing in our life have to be bought withmoney.Butmoney i not the only in the world.Money can not buy many thing uch atime andtrue love.
There are 24 hour in a day.When we are happy, we hope the timewouldlonger.But no matter what we do, or how much money we pend.We cannot makeaday lat 25 hour.Another thing money cannot buy i true love.Money can buy ulargehoue, beautiful clothe, but can’t buy time and love.
正如我们所知，生活中大部分事情都需要金钱。但是金钱不是唯一的，很多东西金钱买不到，比如时间和真爱。
一天有24小时，当我们快乐时，我们希望时间会可以更长。但是无论我们怎么做，花多少钱，都不可能让一天有25个小时。另外金钱买不到的是真爱，金钱可以买到大房子，漂亮的衣服，但买不到时间和真爱。
My dear friends,
Good morning every,my name is sam,it’s my honor to give you a speech,today i am going to tell you a story about mother love,and the topic of the story is the child’s guardian angel.
Once upon a time there was a child really to be born.so one day he asked god ``they tell me you will send me to the earth tomorrow but how am i going to live there being so small and helpless.''
God answered:“among the many angels,ichose one for you.she will be waiting for you and will take care of you.”
“in heaven,i don't do anything else but sing and smile,that's enough for me to be happy.”
“your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you everyday,and you will fell your angel's love and be very happy.”
“and how can i understand when people talk to me.”the child continued.
God patted him on the head and said: “your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words ,and will teach you how to speak.”
“I'v heard there are many bad men on the earth, who will protect me?”
“Your angel will defend you with her life.”
At the moment there was much peace in heaven,but voices from the earth could already be heard.the child know he had to leave very soon.he asked god one more question softly, “oh,god, iam going to leave now, can you tell me my angel's name?”
God touched the child on the shoulder and answered: “your angel's name is not hard to remember,you will simply call her mommy.”
I will never forget this story,today i told it to more people and i’d like to point out :in the world,the greatest love of all is mother love.let us care about mother love and care about our life，i hope we all could live happily.
That's all,thank you very much for your attention.
Dining safty has long been a major concern of human race, so, how can we assure that we are dinning safely?
As the basic element of dining safty, source of the food is perhaps the most essential issue that we should focus upon, if the raw metrial itself can cause negative effects to the human body, nothing can be done to put it right.
Kitchen hygiene will pehaps be another element that should be taken into consideration, including water source, type of cooking oil,quality of spicery used and blending of cooking material.
To sum up, we have a lot to do to ensure dining safty
Some people often say that gold and silver are the most valuable things the world.However，I have my reservations.In my submission，reading is more valuable than anything else.It’s well known that book is the quintessence of human wisdom.Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.
Sometimes our daily life can start to feel dull，dry or depressing — I know it，you know it，we all know it. At times like this，I like to dive into a good fiction book for a much-needed escape into another world，where I can forget about whatever problems are stressing me out. Whether you want to travel to the land of the Hobbits，a galaxy far away or a tropical destination in a steamy romance novel is up to you. You’ll come back refreshed after your mini-vacation to a fresh and exciting place in the world of words.
Books are our friends. They introduce us different kinds of knowledge. They lead us down the road to success.
Books are our teachers. They teach us troth，science，literature，and philosophy of life. Besides，they increase our knowledge，enlarge our experience，strengthen our character and do many other things which we can not do without them.
Books tell us what is good and what is evil. And only books can tell the good from the bad.
Therefore to read more books is the best policy for our young students.
Reading introduced me to concepts like mindful eating，relaxation exercises，and the importance of loving yourself. If I didn’t read，I wouldn’t even be aware of these ideas，which have defined my entire coaching philosophy. If you don’t read，you could be missing out on intriguing ideas that would likewise re-define your personal purpose or business philosophy.
As is well known，books teach us to learn life，truth，science and many other useful things. They increase our knowledge，broaden our minds and strengthen our character. In other words，they are our good teachers and wise friends. This is the reason why our parents always encourage us to read more books.
Reading is a good thing，but we must pay great attention to the choice of books. It is true that we can derive benefits from good books. However，bad books will do us more harm than good.
However，in current days，many of us spend most of the leisure time in playing games or surfing the internet，instead of reading. it's a pity to find it less and less our students are interesting in reading，or have formed a habit of reading.So，in order to revive reading，this beneficial activity，we'd better take action right now.let's read together，learn together and grow！
One is never too old to learn.No matter at what time we realize the importance of reading，we can enjoy it during the rest of our life and finally we will see that it is rewarding to do so.
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:
When I was in the primary school, I have a dream. I want to invent a device which could bring you from one place to another in no time at all. When I was in the secondary school, my dream was to study in my ideal university. And when eventually I got into the university, my dream was to graduate.
How pathetic! When we grow up, we dream less and become more realistic. Why? Why do we have to change our dreams, so, so in order to let it be
Ladies and gentlemen, the reality is not real. It is a barrier keeping us from all the possible fantasies. Flying, for example, had been a dream to mankind for thousands of years. A hundred years ago,
People say that our future is a battle between the reality and our dreams. And if, unfortunately, Mr. Reality wins this war, then I see no future of mankind at all. AIDS will never be curable as this IS the reality; People living in the undeveloped countries will suffer from starvation forever as this IS the reality; 4)Disputes among different countries would never be settled as this misunderstandings and intolerance IS the reality.
Ladies and gentlemen, how many of you have a dream of being able to make a lot of money? Please raise your hands. Oh, quite a number of you! Actually, ladies and gentlemen, this is not a dream, but a task. Every one of us has to make a living, right? Anyway I hope your task will be accomplished. How many of you think that you have already fulfilled your dream and that you don't dream anymore? Dear 5)adjudicators, what do you think? C.S. Lewis once said,
Now that I am a university student, my goal is to graduate with excellences. But at the same time, I have a dream deeply rooted in our future. One day, people living in the areas now 6)sweltering with the horror of wars will be able to sit with their families and enjoy their every moment. One day, people from the rich countries are willing to share what they have with those from the poor countries
and those from the poor countries will eventually be able to make their own happy living themselves. One day, different cultures in this age of globalization will coexist with tolerance and the unfriendly confrontations among them will be 7)eliminated. One day, the globe will share the dream with me and we will all contribute to making our dream come true. One day, our dream will defeat the reality!
Thank you very much.
我们的未来:梦想与现实之间的斗争
下午好,女士们,先生们:
当我在小学,我有一个梦想。我想发明一种装置可以带给你从一个地方到另一个在任何时间。当我在中学时,我的梦想是在我理想的大学学习。最终,当我进入大学,我的梦想是毕业。
多么可怜啊!当我们长大,我们的梦想越来越变得更为现实。为什么?为什么我们必须改变我们的梦想,所以,为了让它
女士们,先生们,现实是不真实的。这是一个障碍阻止我们所有可能的幻想。飞行,例如,几千年来一直是人类的梦想。一百年前,
人们说我们的未来是我们的梦想和现实之间的战斗。如果,不幸的是,现实先生赢了这场战争,那么我没有看到人类的未来。艾滋病不会治愈,因为这是现实,人们生活在不发达国家将永远遭受饥饿,因为这是事实;4)不同国家之间的争端不会解决这个误解和不宽容的现实。
女士们,先生们,你们中有多少人有一个梦想能赚很多钱吗?请举起你的手。哦,相当多的你!事实上,女士们,先生们,这不是一个梦想,但一个任务。我们每个人必须谋生,对吧?不管怎样,我希望你的任务会完成。你们中有多少人认为你已经实现了你的梦想,你没有梦想吗?亲爱的5)退休审核人员,你认为呢?C.S.刘易斯曾经说过,
现在我是一名大学生,我的目标是毕业与优点。但与此同时,我有一个梦想深深扎根于我们的未来。一天,人们现在生活的地区6)闷热的恐怖战争能够和家人坐在一起,享受每一刻。有一天,人们从富裕国家愿意分享他们与贫穷国家
和那些来自贫困国家将最终能够让自己的快乐生活。一天,不同的文化在这个全球化的时代将共存,宽容和它们之间的不友好的对抗将7)消除。总有一天,世界会与我分享的梦想,我们都将有助于使我们的梦想成真。总有一天,我们的梦想会打败现实!
非常感谢。

Thanks!
My dear friends,
Every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. My friends will listen to me when I want to speak, will wipe my eyes when I cry, will take care of me when I am sick, and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.
Friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives. It is actually like a bottle of wine, the longer it is kept, the sweeter it will be. It is also like a cup of tea. When we are thirsty, it will be our best choice, but when we have enough time to enjoy ourselves, it is also the most fragrant drink.
All of us have to spare some time for personal lives. We have to find the chance to express our emotion and love. When staying with our friends, we can release ourselves completely. We can do whatever we want, we can laugh together, talk together, and even cry to-gether. I should say that being together with our best friends is the most wonderful moment of our lives.
As we know, we would feel lonely if we didn't even have a friend. But it doesn't mean we could depend on our friends all the time. There is a famous motto saying that “A friend is like a quilt with cotton wadding, but the real thing that keeps you warm is your own temperature.” It is really true. We have to work hard together with our friends, encourage each other and help each other. When we receive love and friendship, we should repay as much as we can.
Finally, let's pray together now that one day, all of us could find the person we want to find, and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives. Let's pray the flower of friendship be-tween our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our hearts

thank you!
We're going to go on a dive to the deep sea， and anyone that's had that lovely opportunity knows that for about two and half hours on the way down， it's a perfectly positively pitch—black world。 And we used to see the most mysterious animals out the windowthat you couldn't describe： these blinking lights —— a world of bioluminescence， like fireflies。 Dr。 Edith Widder —— she's now at the Ocean Research and Conservation Association —— was able to come up with a camera that could capture some of these incredible animals， and that's what you're seeing here on the screen。
好了，我们即将潜入海底深处。 任何一个有过这种美妙机会的人都知道 在这两个半小时的下降过程中， 是一个完全漆黑的世界。 我们透过窗户会看见世界上各种最神秘的动物， 各种无法形容的动物。这些闪亮着的光， 完美地构成了如萤火虫般发光的世界。 研究保护协会的Edith Witter博士 发明了一种照相机， 这种照相机可以拍下这些令人难以置信的生物。 这就是你现在在屏幕上看到的。
That's all bioluminescence。 So， like I said： just like fireflies。 There's a flying turkey under a tree。 （Laughter） I'm a geologist by training。 But I love that。 And you see， some of the bioluminescence they use to avoid being eaten， some they use to attract prey， but all of it， from an artistic point of view， is positively amazing。 And a lot of what goes on inside 。。。 there's a fish with glowing eyes， pulsating eyes。 Some of the colors are designed to hypnotize， these lovely patterns。 And then this last one， one of my favorites， this pinwheel design。 Just absolutely amazing， every single dive。
他们全部都是生物发光体。像我说的，就像萤火虫一样。 这是个会飞的火鸡，在树下。（笑声） 我知道我现在像是个实习期的地质学家，不过我就是喜欢。 你可以看到这些生物发出的光， 有些是为了避免被吃掉。 有些又是为引诱食物上钩。 尽管如此，用艺术的角度来看，这些都如此神奇。 再来看看这里发生了些什么—— 这条鱼有着会发光，闪烁的眼睛。 有些颜色则可以催眠。 多么有趣的图案。这是最后一个： 也是我的最爱，像转轮一样的设计。 每一次潜水都充满着惊喜。
That's the unknown world， and today we've only explored about 3 percent of what's out there in the ocean。 Already we've found the world's highest mountains， the world's deepest valleys， underwater lakes， underwater waterfalls —— a lot of that we shared with you from the stage。 And in a place where we thought no life at all， we find more life， we think， and diversity and density than the tropical rainforest， which tells us that we don't know much about this planet at all。 There's still 97 percent， and either that 97 percent is empty or just full of surprises。
这正是一个未知的世界。到今天为止，我们只探索了其中的极小部分， 大约只占了所有海洋的3%。 到现在，我们已经发现了世界上最高的山峰， 最深的峡谷， 水下湖，水下瀑布， 还有我们刚才看到的。 然而，恰是我们曾经以为根本不可能有生命的地方， 我们发现了众多的生物，还有它们的密度和多样性， 都超过了热带雨林。这告诉我们 我们实际上对自己的星球还不甚了解。 还有剩下的97%，那里要不就是一片荒芜，要不就是充满惊喜。
But I want to jump up to shallow water now and look at some creatures that are positively amazing。Cephalopods —— head—foots。 As a kid I knew them as calamari， mostly。 （Laughter） This is an octopus —— this is the work of Dr。 Roger Hanlon at the Marine Biological Lab —— and it's just fascinating how cephalopods can， with their incredible eyes， sense their surroundings， look at light， look at patterns。 Here's an octopus moving across the reef， finds a spot to settle down， curls up and then disappears into the background。 Tough thing to do。
不过我现在还是想说说浅水里的世界， 来看看那些神奇的生物。 头足类动物，有头有角。小时候我把他们当作是枪乌贼。 这是一条章鱼。 这是来自Roger Hanlon博士，海洋生物实验室的成果。 这些头足类动物真令人着迷， 它用它们的眼睛，它们那难以置信的眼睛来观察周围的环境， 看光，看图案。 这有只章鱼正在穿过礁石。 找到一个位置，停下来，卷起，然后马上消失在背景之中。 这很难做到。
In the next bit， we're going to see a couple squid。 These are squid。 Now males， when they fight， if they're really aggressive， they turn white。 And these two males are fighting， they do it by bouncing their butts together， which is an interesting concept。 Now， here's a male on the left and a female on the right， and the male has managed to split his coloration so the female only always sees the kinder gentler squid in him。 And the male 。。。 （Laughter） We're going to see it again。 Let's take a look at it again。 Watch the coloration： white on the right， brown on the left。 He takes a step back —— so he's keeping off the other males by splitting his body —— and comes up on the other side 。。。 Bingo！ Now I'm told that's not just a squid phenomenon with males， but I don't know。 （Laughter）
接下来，再来一起看一对鱿鱼。 这就是鱿鱼。当雄性鱿鱼搏斗时， 如果它们想要显示出自己的侵略性，它们就变为白色了。 这有两条雄鱿鱼在搏斗。 它们用撞屁股的方式来搏斗， 真是挺有意思的方法。这里有一条雄性在左边， 雌性在右边。 看，这条雄性能有办法利用颜色把自己分为两半， 所以雌性只能看到它温顺，优雅的一边， 雄性—— （笑声）再来看一次。 让我们再看一次。注意它的颜色： 白色在右边，棕色在左边。 它后退一步，让其它的雄性无法靠近 来到另外一边，并且马上转换颜色。 瞧！以前有人告诉我 这个雄性特征不仅仅是在鱿鱼身上，不过我也不太确定。 （掌声）
Everyone knows the name of Shakespeare but not much about his personal life.
Do you know how William Shakespeare lived before he went to London?
What about his family?
What were his dreams and ambitions?
What did he do when he first came to London to try his fortune?
Today, I want to introduce the early life of William Shakespeare and his great influence to the world.
Family:
Shakespeare was born and pought up in Stratford . He was the son of John Shakespeare, an alderman and a successful glover, and Mary Arden , the daughter of a landowning farmer. He had two older sisters, Joan and Judith , and two younger pothers, Gilbert and Richard.
At the age of 18, Shakespeare married 26-year-old Anne Hathaway , who was an English poet, actor and playwright.Six months after the marriage Anne gave birth to a daughter, Susanna in 1583. Twins, a son and a daughter followed almost two years later and were born in 1585. As Shakespeare had some good friends, Hamnet and Judith Sadler, he named the twins after them, so his son was calledHamnet and his daughter Judith. Unfortunately, in 1596, his son Hamnet died of unknown causes at the age of 11.
This is thefamily tree of Shakespeare’s family and this picture depicts Shakespeare as a family man surrounded by his children, who listened to his stories. Anne was portrayed at the right as an idealized housewife, sewing a garment.
Dreams and ambitions:
When Shakespeare was young, he had a dream of being a poet. With great ambition and determination, Shakespeare was diligent in his studies. He read a lot about books, poetry and writers. When he left school, he worked for his father. However, Shakespeare wasn’t interested in his father’s business. He was still reading a lot and was already writing poems himself.
In the summer months companies of players often came to small towns, and in 1587 five different companies came. Shakespeare always went to see the plays. He loved to talk to the actors and to listen to all their stories of London. He yearned for London, and therefore, he made a decision to get away from his hometown and left for London to pursue his goal.
Early life in London:
Shakespeare was good at acting. He worked for the Queen’s Men at the theatre called The Curtain up in Shoreditch. He acted four small parts in two different plays. He played a soldier and a murderer in one play, and in the other play he was a thief, and also an Italian lord in love with the Queen of the Night. And he loved it.
One day, Shakespeare met Burbage, an actor of Lord Strange ’s Men , who invited him to work with Lord Strange’s Men at the Rose theatre on Bankside. Shakespeare worked harder than ever at the Rose. By 1592 London was hearing the name William Shakespeare again and again.
After 1594, Shakespeare"s plays were performed only by the Lord Chamberlain"s Men .The Lord Chamberlain was a very important man, close to the Queen, and Shakespeare put on plays for the Queen’s court and in the houses of the great lords of England. Among the actors, Shakespeare was special-because he wrote plays. He was always trying something new, something different. And he wrote fast, too.
In 1596, His writing changed after Hamnet’s death. Shakespeare still laughed at people in his plays, but he also felt sorry for them- sorry for all the world, good and bad, rich and poor, young and old. And his people were real. No one was all good, or all bad.
These are all about Shakespeare’s early life and now I want to introduce Shakespeare’s lasting influence on
theatre and literature.
Firstly , he expanded the dramatic potential of characterization, plot, language, and genre. Until Romeo and Juliet , for example, romance had not been viewed as a worthy topic for tragedy. Soliloquies had been used mainly to convey information about characters or events; but Shakespeare used them to explore characters" minds. Secondly , his works heavily influenced later poetry . The Romantic poets attempted to revive Shakespearean verse drama, though with little success. Last but not least , his use of language helped shape modern English. He introduced almost 3,000 words to the English language and used over 7,000 words only once in his plays.
Here are some of his sayings in his well-known works.
Everyone has pressure, as long as you have things done or to heart, the pressure will go unnoticed in the attachment in the man's body, cause all sorts of "symptoms", for example: can't sleep, reduce appetite, or in a bad mood... And so on.
My pressure is not home after finish homework can't write, often busy to midnight; Dad's pressure is accounting work done; Mother's pressure because he was a career woman, a candle burning at both ends and worry can't give attention to both family and work is good, and her sister's pressure is myopic degree increased very fast, it is difficult to control.
Pressure are not necessarily bad, there are also some is good. The rules in our class, for example: not diligent student didn't change class will not be able to finish homework, because of the pressure, a heartbreaker for these people, finally they decided to change my homework finished, also get real learning, no longer look for excuses to slack off. So the pressure is often motivates us go forward.
Large and small pressure exists in our life, we should be appropriate to adjust the mood, the pressure into power, so as to let the life become more colorful.

After the fall, winter gentlely comes to us, with the temperature goes downstep by step, and we will put on the clothes little by little. But to someone,the much-awaited winter finally comes, with the clean and beautiful snow fallingdown. Children shout and hurry to the outside to enjoy the snowy day. They willmake a snowman and maybe give him a scarf, a chrestams hat.Stones are his eyes,carrot becomes his nose, branches from the tree are his arms and their coat ismade by the snowy-drapery and stone-buttons.
They will also get a smile face with the help of the stones. And otherchildren may have a snowball fight. They devided into two parts and round theirballs to throw to the other part's little soiders and try to occupy the otherpart's base under the enermy's heavy fire of snowball. And when the day getsdark, children will go back to their own families, breathe on the window anddraw some masterpieces. Night comes, with children go to bed, the snow slowlyand quietly pour down, quilt over the ground, and everything in the earthbecomes silent and clean then.

Growth, so that everything becomes taken by surprise, I stood clear that, called the threshold, while the pure juvenile, adult side of the vicissitudes of life, some at a loss and what to do, I know that when their children have gone through the aryl when the grass to meet the many people I write about the so-called "rainy season."
The epic life opened a new chapter.
Growing, when we began to pure self-integration into the alien society, growing pains and pressures will not become free in early. And our lives in the constant subject of annoyance to overcome and resolve in one day change the world, the growth of stereotypes.
Growth, the most desire is that with people, the most trouble is to get along with others. When I entered this class, an unfamiliar environment for I am depressed, terrified. And High, in my doubt came to me ... ...
Many nights, I dreamed of and one of the students had a wonderful time spent together. More thoughts, the more his heart is closer lock. Thus, isolation and loneliness, like a thief just like the volatility. To get up that morning, the dizziness. Roommate to see me look bad, with concern, said: "Never, right?" I shook his head, they see nothing, I said, no longer speak. But I can see their eyes for a long time in good faith and fraternity. Later, the headache was not a person to leave the teacher, went to the clinic, the doctor said that in a cold,吊针fight. Looked at the syrup bottle in a drop into the my body, I feel very sad.
Looking at the road outside the yellow lights, helplessness and loneliness of the body I occupy. Suddenly recall a time when illness, friends of the deep feeling anxious face, and concern about the words, but it all seems more and more distant from me, and all are increasingly blurred.
I do not know how long after, a sudden I can not help but the wind caught pitched battle. Then, I see a Blur full Zhang's face, that they, my friends room. They seem to have the face of the winds because the wind has become clear, Smart.
I am full of psychological warmth. I know that in my heart the moment before locking the door, and their greetings and laughter as warm.
Now, I found their advantages: some humorous, some wisdom, it was moderate, it was good, but more importantly, I found that this new focus in the same unity, and fraternity.
Now I'm re-learned how to exchange, learn how to communicate, more importantly, learned how to grow.
Met with high non-butterfly wings, butterfly seen just dance, but we can not ex Meiyan forget the origin of the butterfly. The suffering there is no hard and painful struggle and waiting, how can a shell at the time of amazing wings?
Growth is the pain in the United States, but also the well-being.
These were the men of the whaleship Essex, whose story would later inspire parts of “Moby Dick.”
Even in today's world, their situation would be really dire, but think about how much worse it would have been then.
No one on land had any idea that anything had gone wrong. No search party was coming to look for these men. So most of us have never experienced a situation as frightening as the one in which these sailors found themselves, but we all know what it's like to be afraid.
We know how fear feels, but I'm not sure we spend enough time thinking about what our fears mean.
As we grow up, we're often encouraged to think of fear as a weakness, just another childish thing to discard like baby teeth or roller skates.
And I think it's no accident that we think this way. Neuroscientists have actually shown that human beings are hard'wired to be optimists.
So maybe that's why we think of fear, sometimes, as a danger in and of itself. “Don't worry,” we like to say to one another. “Don't panic.” In English, fear is something we conquer. It's something we fight.
The superstar in my heart is Kobe Bryant. He is one of the best basketball players in NBA. Recently, in 20__ NBA ALL STAR, he and O’neal both became the “MVP”. I think he is the best basketball player in NBA. He is also very handsome. I like Kobe’s basketball style, and I also learn a lot of basketball skills from Kobe. It may help me with my basketball skills more wonderful . Kobe, my superstar.
Jay Chou is the superstar in my heart. It is because he is a clever man who can not only sing but also create the songs. His voice sounds beautiful enough for me to rela_ my body. I can learn a lot things from him. For e_ample, I should get along with my parents like him. It is important to be a good son. So I love Jay Chou.
Avril Lavigne is the superstar in my heart. She’ one of the most popular singers in the world. I’m just a person who likes her very much. I first saw her on TV while she was singing. Her voice deeply attracted me. From the internet I know that She went to America from Canada by herself at si_teen. No sooner, she became a famous singer .I learn that nothing is impossible if you have a great dream from her story.
In my heart, I always think that my mum is my superstar.Although she is not very beautiful, I still love her very much.I learn a lot of things from her.She often sitted behind me when I was doing my homework.She collectes me from school everyday.While she got angry with me ,I kne w that I made mum sad.I love her because she is my only star.I always try my best to make her happy.It’s my job.I believe it!
Kobe is the superstar in my heart. Kobe is a basketball player in NBA. L think he is one of the greatest basketball players in the world. He is a leader in Lakers. Lakers is the best team in NBA. Kobe plays basketball hard all the time in order to win the matches. L can learn his hard-working and his helpful. L love Kobe forever.
David Beckham is the superstar in my heart. He is thirty-four now. He is a gentleman who was born in London. Almost everyone in Britain knows him. He is a football player who plays football in England. Although he is famous, he is still hard-working . He is famous for his beautiful wife and football skills. But he is never proud of these. He works as hard as other football players. This is the reason I love him. I think I should learn this spirit from him,and be hard-woring at anytime.
Ultimately, there is more support for americans with autism than ever before. this means more promise of new breakthroughs that will help us understand autism even better. but in order to continue meeting the needs of people with autism, the combating autism act must be fully reauthorized. we still have a long way to go. working collaboratively with important partners, the affordable care act and the combating autism act will allow us to continue important research and develop and refine vital treatments.
There are still many unknowns. however, one thing is certain. we will continue to work harder than ever to find solutions and provide support to individuals with asd and their families. together, we can help reduce disparities and allow everyone to actualize their greatest potential.

daily life can be made happier. it is a matter of choice. it is our attitude that makes us feel happy or unhappy. it is true, we meet all kinds of situations during the day, and some of them may not be conductive to happiness. we can choose to keep thinking about the unhappy events, and we can choose to refuse to think about them, and instead, relish the happy moments. all of us constantly go through various situations and circumstances, but we do not have to let them influence our reactions and feelings.
if we let outer events influence our moods, we become their slaves. we lose our freedom. we let our happinebe determined by outer forces. on the other hand, we can free ourselves from outer influences. we can choose to be happy, and we can do a lot to add happineto our lives.
what is happiness? it is a feeling of inner peace and satisfaction. it is usually experienced when there are no worries, fears or obsessing thoughts, and this usually happens, when we do something we love to do or when we get, win, gain or achieve something that we value. it seems to be the outcome of positive events, but it actually comes from the inside, triggered by outer events.
for most people happineseems fleeting, because they let changing outer circumstances affect it. one of the best ways to keep it, is by gaining inner peace through daily meditation. as the mind becomes more peaceful, it becomes easier to choose the happinehabit.
here are a few tips for increasing happinein daily life:
1) endeavor to change the way you look at things. always look at the bright side. the mind may drag you to think about negativity and difficulties. don't let it. look at the good and positive side of every situation.
2) think of solutions, not problems.
3) listen to relaxing, uplifting music.
4) watch funny comedies that make you laugh.
5) each day, devote some time to reading a few pages of an inspiring book or article.
6) watch your thoughts. whenever you catch yourself thinking negative thoughts, start thinking of pleasant things.
7) always look at what you have done and not at what you haven't.
sometimes you may begin the day with the desire to accomplish several objectives. at the end of the day you might feel frustrated and unhappy, because you haven't been able to do all of those things.
look at what you have done, not at what you have not been able to do. you may have accomplished a lot during the day, and yet you let yourself become frustrated, because of some small things that you did not accomplish. you have spent all day successfully carrying out many plans, and instead of feeling happy and satisfied, you look at what was not accomplished and feel unhappy. it is unfair toward yourself.
8) each day do something good for yourself. it can be something small, such buying a book, eating something you love, watching you favorite program on tv, going to a movie, or just having a stroll on the beach.
9) each day do at least one act to make others happy. this can be a kind word, helping your colleagues, stopping your car at the crossroad to let people cross, giving your seat in a bus to someone else, or giving a small present to someone you love. the possibilities are infinite. when you make someone happy, you become happy, and then people try to make you happy.
10) always expect happiness.
11) do not envy people who are happy. on the contrary, be happy for their happiness.
12) associate with happy people, and try to learn from them to be happy. remember, happineis contagious.
